A Sea Wind

There's nothing to beat a brisk walk along the coast on a breezy day to blow away the mental cobwebs. Today an onshore wind stood ESE, gusting to force 7 but warm, the waves rolling in on a rising tide to....

....worry the cormorants lining up to dry their feathers on the offshore rocks.

Sadly, in amongst the wrack on the beach we found two distressed divers, one....

....a guillemot unable to move except to peck in frustration at the sand in front of it. We've been told not to report isolated birds which may be suffering from bird flu so all we felt we could do was to leave it until the tide rose, in the hope it might swim away.
